Religious Aesthetics: A Theological Study of Making and Meaning (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780691024721)

Many modes of religious expression and experience have a markedly aesthetic component, even though aesthetic delight itself often appears to be free of moral or religious interests. In this ground-breaking work, Frank Burch Brown shows how aesthetics, no less than ethics, can play a central role in the study of religion and in the practice of theology.
